Mrs. Scott died peacefully in her sleep on January 11th, Monday morning at 5:00 AM, at ninety-one years old. Her son, Renny, said “She was ready to go home! She knew Christ. However, she loved her family, prayed for each one faithfully, and took special delight in our dog “Buzz”, when he visited her. She was also deeply grateful for the loving care she received at Regency Park and prayed for each one who touched her life.”
Mrs. Scott was a life-long Episcopalian. A memorial service will be held Saturday at 4 P.M. at St. Marks Episcopal Church at 901 W. Emery Street, Dalton with the Rev. Dean Taylor officiating and playing the Cello. Renny Scott will share some brief remarks.
